Chapter 137: Hot Pot Banquet on the 22nd Floor, Analyzing Wei Wei's Routine
Wei Wei came to Andy to apologize, but unexpectedly met Zhou Chen and his gang who had returned. Not wanting to embarrass himself, he could only leave a few words and then turn around and leave.
This immediately made Andy feel relieved. She was really not used to close contact with people. Wei Wei's dominance made her very nervous. At this time, she didn't look like a strong woman at all.
After calming down, Andy took everyone to her home, where they were going to have a hot pot feast.
"Sister Andy, Sister Fan, when will they come over? We've prepared a lot of dishes, beef, meatballs, enoki mushrooms, and bok choy. I'm not sure if we can finish them all.
By the way, I don’t know what flavor you like, so Zhou Chen suggested making something spicy. Can you handle spicy food?
Guan Juer asked Andy while she was tidying up in the kitchen. It was not difficult to see from her expression that she was very happy.
Unfortunately, Andy has eaten too much high-end Western food, so she doesn’t really know much about authentic hot pot.
"I'm fine with either. I suggested hot pot because Lao Tan said it's easy and convenient. Do you all know how to make it?
I have no idea what to do, so don't count on me when the time comes. Today I'm just providing a venue and a mouth to feed."
Qiu Yingying next to her immediately boasted, "Andy, hot pot is actually the simplest thing. It's just a big pot of food. After you season it, you can throw in whatever you like and cook it. There's no skill required at all.
As for cooking, you don't have to worry about it. Leave it to Zhou Chen. His cooking skills are very good and can definitely rival those of other chefs."
Zhou Chen walked in just as he was speaking. Hearing the task Qiu Yingying had assigned him, he jokingly said, "Hot pot is more fun when everyone helps out together. Next, I'll make the seasoning, and you guys wash the ingredients and serve them on the plates.
I don't entertain people who only want to eat for free. Today, we will let Andy, who is used to eating Western food, experience the happiness of ordinary people. "
When several people worked together, the process was much faster. Soon, bubbling sounds were heard in the room. When the lid of the pot was lifted, the aroma immediately spread throughout the room.
Fan Shengmei and Qu Xiaoxiao, who smelled the scent, also came over, but compared to Fan Shengmei who came empty-handed, Qu Xiaoxiao was holding a bottle of red wine.
"It smells so good! It really piqued my appetite. Why didn't you wait for me? I stole my dad's best wine. I feel so sad."
Seeing that Guan Juer and the other three were already seated, Qu Xiaoxiao immediately started acting coquettishly and cutely again.
"Okay, stop acting like a spoiled brat. I've been waiting for you since I started cooking. Come sit down. I didn't expect hot pot to be so easy to make. I learned it just by watching it once.
The atmosphere is really lively when many people sit together to eat. There are no so many rules to worry about, and you can just do whatever you want, which is a good thing.”
"Andy, hot pot looks simple, but the most important thing to make it delicious is the seasoning. There are many kinds of base ingredients. Do you still have a lot to learn?
Don't take credit for it so lightly. I put a lot of effort into this hot pot. I guarantee it's no worse than any other hot pot restaurant out there."
Zhou Chen's dissatisfied look immediately made everyone laugh. At this moment, he was like a child seeking credit, waiting for their praise.
"Well, it's all thanks to you that we can have this hot pot today. If it weren't for the information you provided us, this matter wouldn't have been resolved so quickly. You've made the greatest contribution, so is that all right?"
Oops, this made Zhou Chen feel a little embarrassed. We were just talking about eating hot pot, why did you bring up the issue of slandering the mistress?
Haha, this is the real topic, okay? Andy raised his glass and said to everyone, "The main purpose of gathering here to eat hot pot today is to thank you.
Thank you for extending a helping hand to me when I was in the most difficult time, thank you Zhou Chen for providing the information, thank you Guan Guan, Qiu Yingying and Fan Xiaomei for your efforts in helping me post to prove my innocence.
Of course, there is also the person named Aguannan who Xiaoqu helped me persuade. I am very touched by your actions.
I usually like to be alone, but after this incident, I realized how precious friendship is. I feel really lucky to have met you guys living on the 22nd floor. Cheers to our friendship."
After exchanging pleasantries, everyone raised their glasses together, and the atmosphere at the table suddenly became lively. They were sweating profusely after eating Zhou Chen's spicy hot pot.
Next, they talked about netizens’ blind herd mentality and the hostility on the Internet, and lamented that this Internet cleaning campaign really came at the right time, otherwise who knows how the situation would have developed?
Zhou Chen listened silently. He did not say that he was the one who did it. He wanted to say in a cool way that as long as you are okay, I will take care of the rest for you.
不过想到自己和安迪的关系，他们既不是情侣，也不是关系亲密的朋友，说这话估摸着要挨邱莹莹和关雎尔揍的。
As they chatted, they talked about Wei Wei's apology just now, and they began to give Andy advice, saying that she must never forgive that guy.
"Andy, everything started because of Wei Wei. He didn't even show up when you needed him the most, leaving you to bear the stigma of being a mistress.
"When the matter is resolved, he comes to you and apologizes. This is very irresponsible and a bit of a hindsight. It's better to have less contact with men like this."
Qu Xiaoxiao is not afraid of offending others. She expressed her opinion directly. It was obvious that she was disgusted with Wei Wei's behavior.
Guan Juer also tried to persuade her, "Sister Andy, I've said from the beginning that you and Mr. Wei are not a good match. I feel like he's much older than you, and he's very cunning and doesn't have a very good reputation in the business world.
You really should think about this matter carefully. I think you are suitable for a better one."
After Guan Juer finished speaking, Zhou Chen shamelessly pointed at himself and said, "Is that the best man talking about me?
Guan Guan, I must be the best one, otherwise you wouldn't choose me to be your boyfriend?"
Everyone was speechless when looking at the shameless Zhou Chen. Is there anyone who praises himself like this?
Guan Juer rolled her eyes, then picked up the hot pot food and blocked Zhou Chen's mouth, saying, "You'd better be quiet."
Zhou Chen's tongue was stuck out because of the burns from the hot pot. Guan Juer felt that she was too impulsive and quickly handed him a glass of water to relieve Zhou Chen's pain.
Feeling much better, Zhou Chen began to express his opinion on Wei Wei's matter.
"You've all said so much, so I'll be a bit of a villain for once. Although it's just speculation, I don't think it's impossible.
I think Wei Wei must have known about what was going on online, and he deliberately stayed hidden, of course, to trick Andy."
When they heard that Wei Wei was going to trick Andy, everyone at the table stopped what they were doing, because they were all curious about what Zhou Chen meant by the mean-spirited remarks?
Andy himself asked doubtfully, "You said Wei Wei was trying to trick me, but I didn't sense it. Wei Wei isn't that kind of person, is he?"
Haha, then Zhou Chen expressed his guess. He felt that Wei Wei could definitely do it with his scheming.
"Imagine if there hadn't been this internet cleanup campaign, would this matter have continued to ferment and become more and more heated?
When Andy was in trouble, Wei Wei stood up and said that Andy was his girlfriend and the mistress thing was complete nonsense.
He even accused the unreasonable A Guannan of spreading rumors online. Would Andy be very touched at this time?
The male protagonist has already appeared and expressed his attitude. There should be no reason for netizens to continue making a fuss about Andy's mistress incident, right?
It was also beneficial for Wei Wei. Not only did it bring him closer to Andy, but he even got a girlfriend.
After all, they had officially announced it in front of netizens. With all this, didn't Andy fall into his trap?
Don't underestimate the methods men use to pursue girls. When I was pursuing Guan Guan, didn't I also trick her into going to the hotel under the pretext of asking for help from a classmate? "
This immediately annoyed Guan Juer. They were clearly talking about Wei Wei, so why did they bring me into this?
Andy frowned, she was also wondering if Wei Wei was really that kind of person?
Haha, Zhou Chen certainly had his own intentions when he said these words. To put it bluntly, he was trying to sow discord. To put it nicely, he was trying to slowly change Andy's attitude towards Wei Wei.
